298 Hunting accidents
The hunting conference is mainly hunting, and there are dozens of powerful fierce beasts living in the mountains that stretch for hundreds of miles in Lushan, some of which originally inhabited the depths of the mountains, and some of which were deliberately stocked after being captured by major families from other places, the purpose of which is to hone the combat effectiveness of the clansmen's disciples and the tacit understanding of cooperation.
Hunting is not safe, some powerful beasts are comparable to the strength of cultivators in the four realms or even the fifth realm, if you want to hunt, you need not only strength but also the cooperation between the members of the hunting team, and the standard for judging victory or loss is to judge the number and level of fierce beasts hunted within the specified time.
A total of twelve teams participated in the hunt this year, and when Ye Haotian came to the foot of Lushan with the convoy of the palace, the other eleven hunting teams had already arrived.
The hunt is held every spring, and it is a familiar road for the royal palace and the major wealthy families.
Liang King Su Tianbing became the host of the hunting conference, in front of the eleven wealthy families in the city, Su Tianbing was dressed in steel armor, standing on the stage majestically, and his sonorous and powerful words showed the princely demeanor of one side, and even Ye Haotian had to admit that he was impressed by the momentum exuded from him.
After some opening remarks, it was the turn of the major families to report the names and strength of the participants, Ye Haotian stood in the crowd, and sadly found that each of the members of these families participating in the hunt seemed to be higher than his own cultivation, and Su Ning'er also became the lowest captain among the twelve teams.
"Lord, the king of Su Yueyang County led his troops north to fight the demons and has not returned yet, the palace is missing the personal disciple of the Sword Saint, and the first place in this year's hunting conference is afraid that your palace is going to let Xian. A middle-aged man wearing a purple brocade robe and a slightly chubby body said to Su Tianbing with a smile.
"Elder Sun, you can't say that. ”
Su Tianbing said disapprerovingly: "Lushan hunting has never been a one-person performance, whether you can win the first place depends on the strength of the whole team, you also know during the hunt last year, Su Yueyang from entering the mountain to leaving the mountain, a total of three days before and after a sword, that is still when he encountered a scorpion tiger with the strength of the five realms to protect the team members to escape, it was not the same to take the first place?"
The middle-aged man in the brocade robe, known as Elder Sun, smiled faintly and said: "The King of Su Yueyang County is a natural handsome talent, his natural ability in arranging troops and attacking the city is obvious to all, and it is naturally not difficult to use the strategic command in the art of war to hunt and kill fierce beasts, and this year, his silver wing guards also went to Maple Leaf City, relying on Su Ning'er County Lord and these young guards behind him, I really can't see where the prince's self-confidence comes from." ”
"Uncle Sun, don't look down on me. Su Ning'er on the side pouted dissatisfiedly, "Last year, you were able to win the second place, not because of Brother Sun Wu? I have heard, half of the seventeen fierce beasts you hunted were his hands, didn't he come this year? This first place, my niece has won this year, no, let's see! Hmph." ”
Su Ning'er's delicate appearance immediately caused laughter around her, Ye Haotian stood behind, secretly watching the reactions of these people, it can be seen from their eyes and expressions that they love Su Ning'er very much, and a warmth suddenly arises in his heart.
At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves was suddenly heard in the distance, and a palace guard galloped towards him.
"Report, lord. ”
The guards jumped off their horses and saluted Su Tianbing.
"What's the matter?"
Su Tianbing turned around with a smile.
"The prince of Wu has entered the city. ”
"What?"
Su Tianbing was slightly stunned, and the principals of the surrounding giants also began to talk about each other.
"Didn't you hear that he was helping Su Yueyang resist the demon army in Maple Leaf City?"
"Yes, is it possible that the demon army has been repulsed?"
"The prince has entered the city, has the king of Su Yueyang also returned?"
"It seems that the first place in this year's hunt will be taken away by the palace again. ”
......
The guard's words made Ye Haotian's brows furrow, he never thought that Wu Rulong would enter the city at this time, Su Ning'er on the side also changed her face greatly, taking advantage of the chaos, she came to Ye Haotian's side, and said hurriedly: "What should I do? Why did that hateful guy enter the city at this time? Let's run." ”
"Be quiet. ”
Ye Haotian secretly looked around and said, "There are people everywhere, where are we going?"
"But I don't want to see him!
Ye Haotian was more anxious than Su Ning'er in his heart, he pretended to be a disciple of the Phantom Thunder Sect and infiltrated the palace, because no one knew him, and in order to hide his identity, he also lied and said that he was from Anyang City, and he didn't mention going to Maple Leaf City from beginning to end, now that Wu Rulong arrives, his identity will definitely be revealed, and what is even worse is who knows if Su Yueyang will come back with him, if he is met by this guy, then everything will be over.
"Why did he enter the city at this time, did Su Yueyang come back with him?" asked Su Tianbing.
The guard replied: "According to His Royal Highness, the king of the county went after the demon army, and did not return to the city together. ”
In a word, the children of the principals of the surrounding giants all breathed a sigh of relief, and Ye Haotian's heart suddenly let go of half of it.
Su Tianbing's eyes showed a look of worry, and said, "Since this is the case, then let the prince rest in the palace first and wait for ......."
Before King Liang finished speaking, there was another sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and a team of dozens of people galloped over with a big banner with the word 'Wu' written on it.
At this time, the guard answered: "Lord Wang, His Royal Highness the Prince knows that today is the day of spring hunting in Rongshan City, so he brought someone to rush over in person. ”
......
Soon, Wu Rulong came to the foot of the mountain with a group of guards, and greeted Su Tianbing with a smile on his face.
"Uncle Ye, the little nephew Rulong came to marry Su Ning'er's sister with a dowry, but as soon as he entered the city, he heard that today was the day of the spring hunt, so he rushed over non-stop, and the dowry had been sent to the palace by Mr. Xu, why, hasn't it started yet?" his eyes fell on Su Ning'er, "Ah, Su Ning'er's sister is really getting more and more beautiful, Rulong can marry Su Ning'er's sister as his wife, it is really a blessing for the Wu family for several generations." As he spoke, he wanted to step forward and pull Su Ning'er's hand, but when he reached halfway, he was frightened back by Su Ning'er's cold and angry eyes.
Wu Rulong spoke loudly, and every word clearly entered the ears of the people around him, the heads of these wealthy families had obviously heard about the marriage of the two kings of Liang, Wu and Han, and they didn't know what to think in their hearts, but their faces were full of smiles.
But the children of the family standing behind them were not so polite, these people saw Wu Rulong for the first time, and after hearing that he was the person Su Ning'er was going to marry, their faces turned cold.
